A Star Is Born

•
2h 55m
Directed by George Cukor • 1954 • United States
Starring Judy Garland, James Mason, Jack Carson
Judy Garland had no better showcase for her legendary singing and acting talent than as the title “star” of this classic Hollywood-plays-Hollywood musical spectacular. She dazzles as Esther Blodgett, an up-and-coming singer whose powerhouse voice catches the attention of charming but troubled film star Norman Maine (James Mason). As the two begin a passionate romance, she sees her career ascend, while his tragically declines. Garland delivers show-stopping song after song (most by Harold Arlen and Ira Gershwin), including her knockout rendition of “The Man That Got Away.”
